perhaps setting the tone in the house will carry over once the pup grows some but like others have said canines need to know their social order in the pack and any lapse in alpha status will be quickly perceived by the pack.

some dogs don't have an alpha bone in their body and don't bother w/ challenging rank. other dogs might seem ok but if they sense a lacking alpha role they will begin their natural behaviour to set pecking order.

hopefully you'll find w/ calm assertive energy you can control your canines more easily than previous methods (such as yelling).

not everyone agrees w/ Milan's methods of training. have had personal success by being CONSISTENT with the calm assertive energy...especially in situations where there was little to be calm about! hard but practice and practice some more...it *can* become natural with practice!
